A field worker for the student committee, Peter de Lissovoy, 21, a former Harvard student who lives here, complained that he had been struck on the back of the neck by a police officer. Arrested four times in the past year and sentenced to a total of four weeks in various jails in southwest Georgia, Mr. De Lissovoy, who is white, has been a special target of the police. He is shunned by the other whites in this tightly segregationist city, and says he is occasionally saluted by Chief of Police Laurie Pritchett with the greeting: “Mawnin, n*** ”" (New York Times, July 10, 1964). De Lissovoy was a member of SNNC (Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee) " "The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC, often pronounced /sn? K/ SNIK) was the principal channel of student commitment in the United States to the civil rights movement during the 1960s. Emerging in 1960 from the student-led sit-ins at segregated lunch counters in Greensboro, North Carolina, and Nashville, Tennessee, the Committee sought to coordinate and assist direct-action challenges to the civic segregation and political exclusion of African Americans. From 1962, with the support of the Voter Education Project, SNCC committed to the registration and mobilization of black voters in the Deep South. Affiliates such as the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party and the Lowndes County Freedom Organization in Alabama also worked to increase the pressure on federal and state government to enforce constitutional protections.
